摘要
In less than ten years, green fluorescent protein (GFP) has gone from an interesting but relatively unknown protein to one of the most commonly used tools in molecular and cell biology. A comprehensive review of the chemistry of GFP is given. Applications of GFP in molecular biology, environmental studies, and medicine are outlined.
